Does anyone know what would cause my car to loose power while in commute then immediately pick back up again. This has happened tome several times in the last 4 days. I have my foot on the pedal and it boggs down. I did not notice any jerking, or noise. I was thinking it might be a fuel filter.

 

do you have high mileage? when was the last time that it was tuned up? have you followed your maint. schedule?

 

The car has 50 k miles on it. Yes I have followed the regular maintenace schedule. I had the fuel filter chaged at the recommended mileage. I thought I might have somehow got some stuff in my tank that is clogging the filter. I am not sure. I do know that when my car reaches the 1/4 tank mark is when I have the problems. I fill the tank and the problem goes away. I paid attention when I filled the tank the last couple of times and it took 10 to 11 gallons to fill it up, so I know the gauge is not off. I have a 15 gallon tank. </P>
